Matt Gagnon discusses the implications of President Trump’s tariff pause with Mexico and Canada, questioning the strategic goals behind the move. He argues that the threat of tariffs led to substantial changes, such as Mexico deploying 10,000 troops to the border and Canada designating Mexican cartels as terrorist groups and establishing a joint strike force. Gagnon contrasts Trump’s systematic approach with the previous administration’s scattershot methods. He criticizes Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for quickly yielding to Trump’s demands, viewing it as a sign of weak leadership. Gagnon also notes that the 10% tariff on China remains as scheduled.
